"Christmas is coming, double happiness. Should you treat us all to a good meal?"


    In the office of pinetina training base, Guardiola looked at the cold with ill will and asked with a smile.


    Look at his appearance and tone. You don''t have to think about it. This meal is definitely not simple.


    Don''t eat pain cold, that all some live up to his expression.


    "Double happiness? Do you have any? " High cold is to continue to play dumb.


    The assistants around also felt funny. They were very happy to see the cold treat. It was better to eat him.


    Of course, I''m afraid they''re all fed up because of their wealth in the cold.


    "Stop pretending!" Sergio Garcia waved his hand. "We''ve all heard about it. Let me remind you of one more key word, the golden chair award."


    The golden chair award was founded by the Italian Football Association in 1991 and voted by the head coaches of all Italian leagues. It mainly assesses the coach''s coaching performance last season. Anyone who gets this award can almost represent that his coaching ability has been recognized and affirmed by the whole Italian coach circle.


    As we all know, Italy has a large number of famous coaches, and it is not easy to get affirmation.


    What''s more, this award is basically not based on performance as the main assessment standard, so in the past few years, there are also some coaches who have done well in the middle and lower reaches of the team to win the award.


    For example, Zaccheroni, who was in charge of Udinese in the 1990s, and kawasin, who was in charge of Lecce in 2000, won the prize by defeating the winning Lazio coach Eriksson. Later, Del Neri, who was in charge of Chievo, also won the prize.


    Although this award is not based on success or failure as a hero, it has one feature, that is, since its establishment in 1991, except for the award given to Belgian coach Raymond Gossels in 1991, all the winners of this award in the past decade or so have been Italian coaches.


    Therefore, many people think that the golden chair award is the best local Coach Award in Italy.


    Of course, it has a lot to do with the number of famous Italian coaches. In Serie A, most of them are local famous coaches.


    Just this morning, La Gazzetta dello Sport published the news. It is said that it got the exact news from the Italian Football Association. The winner of last season''s golden chair award was Gao Han.


    It will also be the first time in 16 years that the golden chair award has been awarded to a foreign coach.


    And it is said that the vote was won by an absolute overwhelming majority, and the alpine region deserves it.


    "Golden chair award? How can I not understand the gold seat and silver seat? " Gao Han asked again happily.


    "Pretend, you continue to pretend, I don''t believe you didn''t get the message." Sergio Garcia was the first not to believe him.


    If you look at other people, they all have the expression that you''d better confess. They have completely lost their trust in alpine cold.


    Guardiola and cantarello are even more like this. If you want to keep on pretending like this, we will despise your eyes seriously.


    "Well, well, I''ll be honest." Alpine two hands a stand, can only accept their blackmail, "I did receive a phone call, yes, got the golden chair award, my treat, OK?"


    Then the crowd burst into laughter.


    Although the golden chair award is awarded to the head coach, it can actually be regarded as an indirect affirmation of the coaching team members.


    It''s not easy to win this award in Italy, where there are many famous coaches.


    "Well, let me ask you something. Did you vote for yourself?" Sergio Garcia suddenly came up and asked.


    The expression on Gao Han''s face is a Su, "roll, do I have such thick skin?"


    After a pause, he said: "besides, I really thought the Italian Football Association had excluded me."


    This is the truth. Since the outbreak of the phone door incident, many people outside the world have heard that Gao Han is very unpopular within the Italian Football Association, and even many football association executives have accused him of recklessness.


    But I didn''t expect that Sergio Garcia would laugh immediately after the cold weather came to an end. "That''s not surprising. I heard that Prandelli got a vote, and other people are said to vote for you, including Ancelotti."


    Fat Ann?


    It''s a bit unexpected because he has no contact with Ancelotti, and fatty ANN has a headache when he sees him. Even if they meet in the game, they are basically polite and polite.


    Now it seems that fat ANN has a good character.


    As for the fact that Gao Han voted for Prandelli, it''s really because he thinks that the Italian coach in Florence is very good, and he can bring the Viola to the level of last season.


    You know, Fiorentina don''t really have a first-line star.


    "By the way, is there a result in the draw for the Champions League knockout Guardiola asked with concern.


    Today is the day of the draw for the final 16 of the Champions League. The draw place is in Nyon, Switzerland. Inter arranged Blanca to go to the scene. Alpine is to stay in the team for preparation.


    "I don''t know." Gao Han gave a bitter smile, "I hope I can have good luck."


    According to the ranking of the eight groups, the first team is the second team, plus the principle of avoiding Rome and Bayern Munich in the same group. The teams that Inter are really likely to win include Porto, Celtic, Eindhoven, Lille, Barcelona and Real Madrid.


    Among these teams, Barcelona is the strongest, followed by Real Madrid. As for the other teams, it is difficult to pose a threat to Inter.


    "It''s really a shipwreck in the gutter. Who would have thought that Barcelona would lose to Chelsea in the group stage, while Capello, who has always been steady, even lost to Lyon." Guardiola shook his head and sighed.


    Even now, he still has a very deep feeling for Barcelona.


    "If we''re lucky, we''ll take a weaker team and relax." Cantarello laughs.


    Everyone also felt reasonable and agreed with each other with a smile.


    At this time, the cold cell phone suddenly rang, the caller ID is Blanca.


    "Coming." Gao Han raised his finger and connected it to his ear. "Hi, Marco, what''s the result?"


    People are also looking forward to the cold, waiting for the answer.


    But soon, they noticed that Gao''s face became a little heavy, and they all had an ominous premonition.


    "Well, OK, I see. I''ll come back."


    After hanging up the phone, Gao Han looked at the assistants in front of him and shook his head with a bitter smile. "Everyone, we still have to be busy. It''s Real Madrid."


    "Real Madrid?" The crowd lost their voice.


    Despite avoiding the strongest Barcelona, it''s definitely not a good sign.


    "Are they going to deliberately create a strong dialogue?" Sergio Garcia said angrily.


    How unfortunate it is to meet Bayern Munich in the group stage and Real Madrid in the knockout stage?


    Needless to say, the next eight knockout and four knockout are sure to be basically strong teams.


    On the contrary, it was the high cold. After solving the mystery, the whole person was relieved and said with a smile: "Real Madrid is nothing. We haven''t celebrated in the Bernabeu for a long time, have we?"


    When they heard his confident words, they all laughed.


    The draw is really bad, but Inter have the strength and confidence to beat their opponents.


    What''s more, Real Madrid failed to break through the last 16 teams in the past two seasons, falling at the feet of Juve and Lyon respectively. Although Capello was replaced this season, their performance did not improve much in the group stage.


    So, the shipment is good.


    …………


    …………


    As soon as the final 16 of the Champions League draw was drawn, the venue of UEFA headquarters in nion was boiling.


    As soon as the draw was over, representatives of major clubs went out to be interviewed by the media.


    The technical director of inter said the draw was not particularly good.


    "Real Madrid is one of the strongest teams in European football. They have outstanding superstars such as Ronaldo, van Nistelrooy, Raul and David. Capello is also a very good coach. He is very familiar with Serie A and Inter Milan. We have to be cautious


    But soon, Blanca''s words changed, "however, I also want to emphasize that we are the only team in the group stage of the Champions League to keep winning all the time. We will not be afraid to draw any opponents. I believe that as long as the team continues to maintain the state of the group stage, we can continue to advance."


    But just after Blanca''s words, Real Madrid general manager Mijatovic, who was interviewed next to Blanca, laughed and praised: "we are very satisfied with the draw result, the result is very good."


    "Long before I came to Switzerland, coach Fabio Capello told me that apart from the Premier League, it doesn''t matter who the teams in Serie A and Bundesliga meet. As a result, we were lucky to win Inter


    The triumphant manner of Mijatovic''s reply made Blanca frown.


    Is there a minimum of mutual respect?


    "Mr. Mijatovic, inter won on all fronts last season and this season as well A reporter on the opposite side kindly reminded.


    "Yes, I know, they are a very strong team, very competitive, but I still think we can get into the last eight, because we all know that after the Calciopoli incident, the strength of the Serie A League has declined very quickly, the loss of players is very serious, more importantly, we are not afraid of teams like Inter Milan


    "But you should know that when Gao Han used to coach Atletico Madrid, he was also very good at Real Madrid


    "Yes, but it''s all over, isn''t it?" Mijatovic asked with a smile.


    "In the past, we were superstitious in superstar strategy, which led to problems in team formation strategy and even mistakes in the selection of head coach. But in the past six months, we have made good adjustments. We have introduced famous coaches such as Capello and Emerson and strength players, and Samuel has also performed better and better in central defence."


    "In particular, we are good at playing at home, so, I guess, we''ll finish two rounds at the Bernabeu


    According to the schedule of the final 16 of the Champions League, the second team should play first and then the guest. The first leg of the two sides should be held in the Bernabeu.


    Blanca was stunned to hear that. I believe many media reporters, like him, seriously doubt where the confidence of Mijatovic comes from?


    How could he have the confidence to say that?


    But if you think about it carefully, it''s not surprising.


    At least from the words of Mijatovic, we can hear that he and the current management of Real Madrid are desperately trying to get rid of the relationship with the management dominated by Florentino in the past, so as soon as he and Calder ó n come to power, he is the first to take the superstar strategy.


    Now, this is more or less for this purpose.


    After all, the weak European war is also one of the fuse for Florentino to step down.


    Therefore, when asked about Blanca''s response to the words of Mijatovic, the technical director of Inter Milan shook his head in tears and laughter and sighed, "what a mystery of confidence!"
